False. Shows what you know.
Also, don't call land trading cheating. If it were cheating it would be enforced by the mods. It's also not an abuse of game mechanics. Everyone can do it. Landtrading is no different than land:land retals. Some people see their value and like them, others think they're cheap and don't like them. Ultimately, the server goes with whichever option is backed by the strongest alliances. Don't like land trading? War RD every set until they stop doing it. Given that nobody has done that it stands to reason that either a) not as many people care as you seem to think or b) RD is powerful enough either militarily or politically to persuade others to ignore it. Isn't that the point of this game? Use military power or political power in order to gain the highest NW possible? RD has clearly done that. Landtrading is no different than L:L retals and it certainly isn't cheating.
Hawkeye you make some really good points. Unfortunately PP's little peanut sized brain doesn't understand most things, or anything regarding the politics of this server because he's an independent suicider set after set. It's really not worth it to argue with him. The majority of the time he has no idea what he is talking about and he claims his beliefs to be wide spread beliefs, but never has any supporters.
PP claims RD (and myself) have no skills because we get free land.
I was topfed 7 times this set, 4 by MD, 2 by SoF, 1 by an untagged- losing 30k acres from those hits. I was suicided on twice by PP in the first 10 days. I exchanged a handful of hits that could actually be considered trading. I farmed a RD country that owed us reps from the past.
I got less than 1/3rd of my land from internal farming or trading, NEITHER of which is cheating, against any rules, or violates any coding or glitch. PP, its quite funny how you troll these boards daily looking for people to call cheaters, or harass. Why don't you learn how to play the game and keep your mouth shut. Or as I said before, go play solitaire - it will keep you busy ;)
